    Thank you so much for making this video! Getting the darn thing open was always ridiculously challenging - I can't believe how easy it was to do with the clip.

    You rock! I couldn't figure out how to get the remote open and I was afraid of breaking it. Your video walked me through step by step and you made it fun to watch. Thanks!

    I was literally just pulling out of my driveway to the store when my battery died and found your video for my garage door opener. Thank you?

    so, being the queen of google, and fighting with an obviously dying garage door opener battery, I found this video. PERFECTION! Thank you so much from a little old lady in Idaho! I can do this :)

    I searched for the battery compartment for months. Thanks for the video. Didnt know I could short the battery by pinching it. Thx again

    Thanks, Daniel. Opening is the hardest part for most of us - we didn't know we already had the tool we needed! Also, I enjoyed your cat coming in to supervise!

      +Paul Corcoran Yes, As soon as I saw the cat I thought, oh, my kind of man. Pretty cat.

      /Paul hey I used a screwdriver years ago, and now it’s quite jammed. I tried using the clip, and that didn’t work either. Any suggestion
      ?

    Thank you so much! I had this sitting in my car for a month because I thought it would be too difficult to change. You made it so easy!

  • @drhunter3862
    @drhunter3862 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Thanks! Bought a house with a couple of dead-as-a-door-nail remotes, and you helped me to figure out what to do!

  • @kathymai7684
    @kathymai7684 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you Daniel! Opening it was so damn hard! Almost broke a nail trying to open it... Never knew that the clip would be the best opener!

    Your video on how to change my garage door opener was wonderful. I had been frustrated for weeks not knowing how to do it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

  • @frankrobinette8684
    @frankrobinette8684 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks, Dan, I wasn't even sure it had a battery. Watched your video, (I also just happened to have a package of 2032s) and changed the battery slicker than snot on a doorknob. I walked out to my garage and the door was open, so I knew it worked. Tested it a few times and all's well. Thanks again.

  • @MattAllenTeller
    @MattAllenTeller 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thumbs up. I was reluctant to pry the case open because it was going to take a lot of force and I did not want to break it. Now I'll just muscle on through. I also didn't know about shorting out the battery and will be careful of that. Love the cat!

  • @betsyorcutt9851
    @betsyorcutt9851 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Great instructions! I couldn't figure out how to open the remote. Thank you a 3 minute fix!

  • @anastasiacelestine3571
    @anastasiacelestine3571 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much! I pictured a AAA battery and something told me to look it up. So glad I did before opening it! We have the same remote so I'm off to get the battery. Thanks again!

  • @IceyIcey2023
    @IceyIcey2023 10 ปีที่แล้ว +15

  • @economyministorage3776
    @economyministorage3776 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    (From E. Sandberg) Awesome video. great tip on opening the case...AND about shorting out the battery...which is probably what I did as my replacement is not working...who knew?? Thanks so much!

  • @MrMcavity
    @MrMcavity 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much. I didn't think of a battery was going to call garage repair because the door was acting so bizarre and light would not go out. Anyway thanks for giving me the simplest and least expensive approach first.

  • @jamesdebaggis9856
    @jamesdebaggis9856 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you very much I had no idea there was a battery in the remote. That explains why I'm having a hard time opening and closing the door sometime it works and sometimes it doesn't. Thanks again

  • @fredzewaki6086
    @fredzewaki6086 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would have NEVER figured out how to change the battery in my garage door opener. Epic eye opener. Using a key to open packaging also new and valuable information. The "hack" using the visor clip to pry open the enclosure is pure genius. But... and I struggle to maintain my composure in just describing this.... To actually listen for the garage door opening instead of walking over to verify visually that the door is opening... OMG... Sometimes the information is just too much..
